Akira The Don, Jocko Willink - Every Second Counts (Get Some) lyrics
[Akira The Don, Jocko Willink - Every Second Counts Get Some lyrics]
Standby to get some
First thing when a revolution happens
They take over the radio stations
'Cause they wanna get right into the thoughts
Of the people
Think, it's going into your brain, it's words
You ever heard of Akira the Don?
Just press play
Rome wasn't built in a day we all know that
Everyone hears that but Rome
Also didn't fall apart overnight either
It took hundreds of years for
Rome to reach it's peak
But it also took time, hundreds of years
For Rome to decay and fall apart
And that is representative of life
You don't achieve worthwhile goals
Quickly or easily, they take time
They take struggle
They take relentless pursuit
Day in and day out that's what it takes
That's why I say you've gotta pay attention
You have to watch every single second
Every single second
Because every second counts
Every second counts
Every second counts, every second counts
Every second counts, every second counts
Every second counts, every second counts
But also, things don't usually fall
Apart quickly either it's a slow process
A little slip here
A little setback over there
A little wearing down of discipline and will
Over time that's the thing
Success and failure are
Generally slow processes
Either you're slowly building things up
Or gradually tearing them down
And that's why I say
You've gotta pay attention
That's why I say you've gotta pay attention
You have to watch every single second
Every single second
Because every second counts
Every second counts
Every second counts, every second counts
Every second counts, every second counts
Every second counts, every second counts
Because those seconds, they turn into minutes
And minutes turn into hours
And hours turn into days
And days turn into years
That second, that second that just went by?
That counted and so did that second
And so did that one
And in those precious seconds
You were either building
Or you were decaying
You were either gaining ground
Or you were losing ground in that second
In every second
That's why I say you've gotta pay attention
You have to watch every single second
Every single second
Because every second counts
Every second counts
Every second counts, every second counts
Every second counts, every second counts
Every second counts, every second counts
(Every second counts, every second counts)
Every second counts
(Every second counts, every second counts)
Every second counts
So – Make – Every – Second – Count
First thing when a revolution happens

'Cause they wanna get right into the thoughts
